Baker & Daniels counseled clients in transactional, regulatory, and litigation issues throughout the United States and around the world. Founded in 1863 by Thomas Hendricks, Conrad Baker, and Oscar B. Hord as Baker, Hord, and Hendricks, its founders all died in 1880s. Baker's son, Albert Baker, took ownership of the firm and took on a new partner, Edward Daniels, renaming the firm Baker & Daniels.
The firm's clients included Fortune 500 corporations, regional businesses, local governments, nonprofit organizations, and individuals. Based in Indianapolis, Indiana, Baker & Daniels also had offices in Chicago, Illinois; Washington, D.C.; Fort Wayne and South Bend, Indiana; and Beijing, China.
On January 1, 2012, Baker & Daniels and Faegre & Benson successfully combined firms and began business operations as Faegre Baker Daniels LLP.
